3. Installation
This product may only be installed by qualified personnel (licensed electrician).
It is suitable for wall mounting or pole mounting (vertical surface). In all cases, the surface should be solid and flat.
Precautionary measures
Caution
Ensure that the AC input is protected by a fuse or magnetic circuit breaker rated at 40A or less. The cable cross-section must be sized accordingly. If the AC input supply is rated at a lower value, the fuse or magnetic circuit breaker should be sized accordingly.
An external RCD is required.
We recommend using an RCD type B protected supply (check local legislation) . Make sure that the RCD corresponds to the maximum power used, i.e. use a 40A RCD type B if you charge mostly with 22kW or correspondingly smaller if you charge with less power
Recommended cable cross-section is 6mm² / AWG 10.
Inside the device is a sticker with the model, serial number, WiFi password and, depending on the date of manufacture, the unique Bluetooth pairing code. Note the password and pairing code on the internal label for future reference. This initial password can be used for both logging in on the web page but also for WiFi connection.
The tightening force of the screws on the backing plate should be 1-1.2 Nm.
The mounting surface should be solid and flat.
Make sure you always have the latest version of this manual, which is updated regularly and available on the EV Charging Station website.
Installation steps:
Decide whether the power cable should be routed from the bottom or from the rear into the charging station.
Remove the blue cover (2 screws at the bottom) from the charging station.
Mark the wall where it should be mounted using the supplied wall plate or the drilling template in the appendix.
Drill 3 holes with wall plugs ready for installation, see the drilling template in the appendix.
Measure a suitable location and drill through the wall for the cable (when main supply cable comes from inside the building). Note that if the cable is fed into the charging station from the rear instead of the bottom, the hole will match the drilling template.
Depending on whether the cable is routed from below or from behind, knock out the appropriate hole for the nylon gland with a screwdriver or use a 28mm drill and insert the nylon gland. If the cable is routed from the rear, attach the supplied rubber plug instead and pierce a hole slightly smaller than the power cable into it to make a watertight connection.
Label each individual cable and pass it through the wall, the nylon gland (or the rubber plug), the grommet and into the charging station.
Terminate the cable ends with ferrules and connect to the relevant points.
If this is a single-phase installation, use L1, neutral and earth connections.
Tighten the nylon gland if installed from the bottom.
Hang the device over the wall plate and fix it with the two screws from inside the device.
Attach the blue cover and fix it with the 2 screws from the bottom side. Make sure it is firmly seated.
